EAVE ON DEMAND session for Ecuadorian Producers

November 5 - 8, Quito, Ecuador

Eurocine Film Festival in partnership with EAVE ON DEMAND and COPAE (Corporation of Audiovisual Producers of Ecuador) are organizing a Development Workshop for experienced producers who are currently working on a fiction project with international co- production potential.

The aim of this workshop is to improve the participants’ production skills and co- production project management, providing them with the necessary tools in order to succeed in the international market.

The workshop features high-level experts and will combine EAVE’s experience in training and creating international network with a tailor-made approach to Ecuadorian producers and each project’s specific needs.

A selection committee will choose a maximum of 8 – 10 participants, who during the 4 days of the workshop will receive a complete guide in the fundamental aspects of developing a film project:

How to present a project to the international market.

How to pitch your project.

How to apply to European film funds.

They will also develop tools of co-production, marketing, script development and skills to work with international partners.

The workshop will be held from November 5 – 8, 2018 in Quito. Deadline for application is September 28, 2018.
